Scarborough slandering Clarke on MSGOP right now
Got some Weekly Standard "expert" explaining how Clarke just isn't credible. Incredible.

5. Just turned it off.
The only "news" I can watch anymore is c-span. Most other programs turn my stomach into knots. Boy do I ever miss Malloy.

6. Then why doesn't ANYONE in BushInc just sue Clarke for libel?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

The same reason those who claimed Brock was lying but never sued him.

The same reason those who claimed Conason was lying but never sued him.

BushInc KNOWS and their whores in the media (like Joey R-Murderer) KNOW they are the ones doing the lying.

7. What an absolute liar Scarborough is
He says that Clarke was making outrageous claims that CBS didn't challenge him on at all. Scarborough went on to claim that Clarke stated that Clarke "could tell by looking into Condoleeza Rice's eyes that she had never heard of Al Qaeda before". Scarborough went on to state how absolutely ridiculous it was to make that claim. He and his right wing guest even offered up evidence by stating that she had spoken about Bin Laden and Al Qaeda on this occasion, and on that occasion.
Seems Scarbarfo is the one who had the facts incorrect. Here's what the book actually says, on pg 229:
"As I briefed Rice on al Qaeda, her facial expression gave me the impression that she had never heard the term before, so I added, "Most people think of it as Usama bin Laden's group, but it's much more than that. It's a network of affiliated terrorist organizations with cells in over fifty countries, including the U.S."

13. Hey look, it's Mike "I see dead people" Scarborough!
And to think O.J. had to spend all his money to beat the rap. Should have been a rich, white, republican congresscritter like Mike. No rap to beat!

Lawrence O'Donnell is telling these clowns how stupid they are. Thank God for this brief moment of sanity.

10. Now they're saying that Kerry went on and on about the atrocities committe
by the soldiers. For God's said, I just saw that fucking testimony two days ago. Kerry did NOT go 'on and on' about the atrocities. He briefly referred to testimony by soldiers in Detroit previously, who had admitted committing atrocities like that.

16. The "Winter Soldier Investigation"
was held in Detroit, a few months before Kerry's 1971 testimony. More than 100 Vietnam veterans testified to war crimes they themselves committed.

This is the kind of inaccuracy (slander?) that merits phone calls or e-mails to MSNBC. I don't know about you, but I'm fed up with the freepers bald-faced lies. We have too much at stake to tolerate it anymore!

18. I'm with you zookeeper, let's kick their asses
This is so outrageous. Put any lie on tv, on the internet, on the radio, or in print, and it becomes fact. Unbelievable.

Then see what Tweety has to say about today's 9/11 hearings. I made a point of watching every minute of it today, in order to be able to spot ANY inaccuracies in the media's reports. 'Even took notes...totally not my usual style!

Richard Clarke is testifying tomorrow in place of Condi Rice. How weird is that?!

23. Nothing much.
It was quickly ruled as an accident and case closed. No one has come on air or print to question him on it.
